RFS team news

Rigas Futbola Skola manager Viktors Morozs will be without Ismael Diomande, Martins Kigurs and Emerson Deocleciano due to injuries.

Despite being set for a move away from the club, Adam Markhiyev is expected to join Stefan Panic and Dmitrijs Zelenkovs in the middle, with Janis Ikaunieks and Cedric Kouadio in attack.

Ajax team news

Jorrel Hato will be suspended on account of his three bookings in the league phase, while Benjamin Tahirovic and Owen Wijndal remain doubts for the tie. Davy Klaassen is ineligible to play here.

Ajax boss Francesco Farioli could look up to Anton Gaaei to feature at left-back given that Devyne Rensch is due to join Roma, while the likes of Kenneth Taylor, Jordan Henderson, Branco van den Boomen, Kian Fitz-Jim, Chuba Akpom and Brian Brobbey are all in contention for starts.
